QP, mystery heroes, comp, I don’t see this that often. Its kinda a meme to me at this point, like something akin to “Ugh, Paris, amirite?!” whenever it does happen, but people stay nonetheless, they play through the map, and some leave along the way, but this is true of almost every match I’ve played regardless of the map.

Well, we must be having vastly different Overwatch experiences. I consistently see people complain about 2CP and occasionaly KOTH. It’s a frustrating, unfun, game mode for me and many others.

Ow is a better game if koth doesn’t exist.

There’s no such thing as a universal experience with this game. The team, both your own, and the enemy shape that experience.
The maps aren’t the problem, but there is such a thing as negative association based on past experiences. Essentially, if you feel like you’re gonna have a bad time, you’re probably going to have a bad time.
Now what can definitely be argued, is that some maps really go against what people want to play or how they want to play. Paris and Ilios-Well are great examples of two maps with aspects to them that can be frustrating. Are they bad maps? Not really.

I don’t why 2CP gets the most hate. I like both payload and 2CP. I have to say I think there are a lot of map issues on 2CP maps though. I hate KOTH the most.

How do you know?
Any polls being held about least favorite gamemodes have put 2CP and KotH closely together as most disliked, so by this logic, both should be removed. That leaves only payload and hybrid, which is not much.

true, biggest mistake they made…
most people dont realize, but its maps, its always the maps, you need to nail those…
Dust map was created 20 years ago, and still to this day millions play on it.
This^ lmao I have seen 6 out of 6 people leave as soon as we enter the game in QP I mean in comp you probably don’t have a choice but in QP people normally leave.
Personally I hate Oasis more than any other map but well whatever I guess
That is why I cannot even play CoD anymore. They just stopped caring about maps and the whole game suffers for it.
Did TF2 ever do 2cp? I honestly can’t remember.
I do remember a lot of those 5cp maps though, where you go back and forth taking points until one team controls them all. That was a lot of fun.
Yep, and even one of the most popular maps is 2cp (dustbowl)
Must be the day of the month to start this topic yet again.
Some people like 2CP and some don’t. If everybody didn’t like it then it wouldn’t exist. Live with it.
It would be nice though if you could select in your settings which map types you want to play like you do in workshop. I leave in QP instantly for contest the point maps (ilios, etc) as I really don’t like them. Everyone has different ideas of what is good and bad.
I only play QP and I have never seen more than 2 people leave. If 6 leave then it is most likely a group. I leave volskaya as soon as it comes up, but play paris. But then I also leave control point maps. It’s pretty common in QP for people to pick and choose what they play. I often only have 15-30 mins to play at a time and don’t want to waste it on a map I detest.
Nah. I bet i can do way better.
OW WOULD BE SUCH A BETTER GAME IF [MOIRA DIDN’T EXIST]
OW WOULD BE SUCH A BETTER GAME IF [WIDOW DIDN’T EXIST]
OW WOULD BE SUCH A BETTER GAME IF [BRIGITTE DIDN’T EXIST]
…and the list continues…
Fair enough, even I leave oasis and busan sometimes.
yes it doesn’t always happen but It happens and it’s not just one team it’s from both teams and the only times I see it happen is in 2CP and sometimes in koth maps
Woah now. Coffee is like one of the only viable flavours of yogurt. It’s like eating a sweet and tangy cappuccino.
Some time ago, Jeff did a poll about community favorite map, you can search it.
From 17 maps, Hanamura was 5th, Anubis was 11th and Volskaya was the least favorite one.
